| * Type B Past Week Summary * Fabian took photos of the cleanroom in the ATC to help decide whether it is a good place to assemble PIs for Type A/B. * Hirata-san ordered and received wire for the BS and RM (will be cleaned 7/19). * Hirata-san received remachined locking parts for the IM (will be cleaned 7/19). * Hirata-san ordered additional Misumi parts to be used with the IM locking parts. * Fabian and Hirata-san weighed the masses that they've been constructing in the cleanroom and found a 600 g discrepancy from the Inventor (too light) for the IM. * Hirata-san ordered a medium-capacity scale to weigh the masses of the individual parts more precisely. * Hirose-san and his team successfully removed the misglued prisms from the dummy BS. * Fabian travelled to Kashiwa and removed most of the glue from the face of the dummy BS (where the flags had been). There is still some adhesive remaining on both the face and barrel, which will require more work and a second trip. * Shoda-san took a suitable segment of geophone noise data for analysis. Fabian will track down the calibration factors. * Type B ongoing issues * OSEMs * Akutsu-san is working to get wide-mouth OSEMs * Longer cables for BF->PI and SF->PI. * Connectors RECEIVED, cables being made. * SR machining test ongoing. * Lower breadboard stuff * Installation to be incorporated into the procedure document. Mark/Takahashi to discuss. * Breadboard springs (in manufacture, expected end of July) * Nail-head parts - RECEIVED. * Documents * BS Assembly Procedure [[http://gwdoc.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp/cgi-bin/private/DocDB/ShowDocument?docid=4235| E1504235]], [[https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=D5CCFA70A378E0D0!195&authkey=!AM_usynuo9QI57g&ithint=folder,webloc|E1504235 draft]] * To-do list during Mark's vacation * Apply grease to jacks for assembly frame (Takahashi) * Finish assembly of BS IM, RM and IRM (Fabian). * Weigh IM/RM/IRM (Fabian, Hirata) * Pack/ship IM/RM/IRM to Kamioka (Hirata/Fabian). * Analyze geophone data (Mark, Shoda) * Remove glue from dummy BS face (Fabian) * Remove prism from dummy BS (Hirose, Fabian?) * Reglue flags and prisms (Tatsumi, Fabian) * Buy wire for BS and RM (Hirata) * Clean wire for BS and RM (Hirata) * Do fit/function test of winches (Fabian/Hirata) * Ship winches to Kamioka (Hirata/Fabian) * Work on BS simulation (Fabian) * Do Inventor assembly for SR2 in chamber and on assembly frame (Hirata) * Apply vacuum grease to jacks for BS assembly frame (Takahashi) * Write more of payload assembly procedure (Fabian) * Write more of main assembly procedure (Mark) * Longer term to-do list * Do BS Simulink model (Mark, Kokeyama) * Do 2D drawings of SR2 parts (Hirata) * Redesign SRx IM wire clamps for larger prisms, remachined RMs. * Order SRM/PRM parts (Hirata/Shoda) * Order SRx fasteners (Hirata) * Check SR RM machining test progress (Hirata) |
=== Type B (Mark) === ==== Report for the week of 4/15 ==== * Fabian debugged a dead stepper on SR3 (broken driver channel) and a dead geophone on SRM (unplugged cable).

Type B (Mark)
Report for the week of 4/15
- Fabian debugged a dead stepper on SR3 (broken driver channel) and a dead geophone on SRM (unplugged cable). He made another update to the table used by the Python script for the stepper driver MEDM screen to reflect the remapping.
- Fabian monitored the pumpdown and he and Hirata-san did post-pumpdown checks of all the suspensions. They were all healthy.
- Hirata-san participated in the health checks and learned about the computer systems.
Mark did major revisions to the MEDM menu on the OVERVIEW screen with scripts for making safe.snap files and snapshots of setpoints. He made the safe.snap files in directories under /opt/rtcds/kamioka/k1/target into symbolic links to files in /opt/rtcds/userapps/release/vis/k1/burtfiles, alongside the setpoint files, so that they could be backed up to the SVN (as at LIGO).
Mark did major updates to his vistools.py Python package for manipulating the suspensions (based on his LIGO sustools.py). He added entries for Type B suspensions to the internal database and added commands for manipulating SET and DCCTRL blocks. He also added commands to simulate pressing on the CLEAR HISTORY and LOAD COEFFICIENTS buttons.
Mark started updating the TYPEB.py Guardian definition file to use vistools.py. So far only the ENGAGING_IP_CONTROL state has been fully rewritten and tested, but other states will be simple adaptations. It should be easy to do Type A and other Guardians in the same style.
Plan for week of 4/22
- Mark, Terrence at Kamioka Mon-Fri.
- Fabian at Kamioka Mon-Thu.
- Work with Lucia to do blending of the IP LVDTs and geophones.
- More Guardian improvements.
Improve vistools.py (add more useful functions; add docstrings; add support for Type A/Bp/C; create test suite).
Finish and test new Guardian code using vistools.py.
- Modify RT models and/or Guardian to revert to the SAFE state under control in all but the most extreme emergency situations (rather than suddenly shutting off all output).
- Work on Type B paper.
- Tidy up.
- Gather and clean tools.
- Gather and organize unused parts and fasteners.
